Titans Game Thoughts

Kudos to JJ as well. He had a few bad moments, but overall, he played a very good game. If he stays outside and uses his speed instead cutting back inside on that catch down the sideline, it's a score. He had juked the S beyond the point of recovery and probably would have walked in had he taken it down the sideline. Oh well, chalk it up to inexperience. At minimal he showed he deserves some more PT at WR. He's pretty scary if he gets the ball in space.

I agree with all of this. We need to use him where he can make big plays. He may never be a great possession guy, but we don't need him to be. If we throw him the ball twice on 8 yard passes he catches one for 8 yards and drops one because he is unreliable. It's not worth going to him in those situations and it's why he hasn't seen the field as a WR.

But if you go to him deep twice and he blows one play but makes the other, then its worth it. So give the guy 3-4 chances at big plays each week, especially since everyone but AJ gets one one one deep coverage.

I hope that seeing JJ yesterday means we are even better when Walter does come back.
